    Everything from full cuts to individual steaks.
    Norman B.

    You wouldn't expect it from a quick look at the consumer entrance, but Ace Endico is a foodie's paradise. It looks a bit rough, but my oh my, it's oh so tasty.... Ace prepares and packages and distributes over 15,000 food products to restaurants, country clubs, grocery stores, and neighborhood bodegas, stretching from Maine to Pennsylvania. They own many of the companies in their supply chain, produce many of the products on their shelves, and train chefs to incorporate their foods in creating new recopies. The retail outlet is located in one corner of its own massive food center in Brewster. They're currently expanding their footprint and seem almost ready to move into a far larger retail space. Depending on whom I ask, the new space will be up and running "in a month at most", "maybe two or three", or "pretty soon".... If you're mostly indifferent to food, this is not your store and odds are high you'll hate it. But if cooking and eating make your heart & soul sing, you are about to meet your newest best friend. The current entrance is humble at best. Tucked into a corner of their vast lot, it passes through industrial racks of soda cases, big boxes of heavy-duty cleaners, and lines of paper towels. Not auspicious, but trust me, keep walking. The good stuff is ahead. Behind its checkout lanes are shelves and racks jammed to the rafters with pastas, rows of sauces, lines of syrups, stacks of spices and more than eyes can possibly grasp in a single visit. There are no signs, no markings, no clue to move right (toward industrial-sized bags of pastas) or left (to coffee and cookies for peckish customers). I usually start with a bit of coffee and a cookie. Or maybe two if Alicia's not looking. There's a section of fresh fruit and veggies, most (but not all) priced well below retail. On a recent visit, large plump avocados were $1.25 and heirloom tomatoes sold for $3.25/pound, about half what I pay at my local store. I've never gotten better-priced, fresher, firmer mushrooms anywhere. Except my own back yard. There are rows of imported olive oils and a wide variety of coffees from Italy. I don't know these brands (yet), but if they're most everything here, I expect it'll be a wonderful learning experience. Fresh fish is to the left, arrayed on crushed ice, changing with the daily catch. A small shelf holds about a dozen imported jars (not cans) of tuna that I'll save for my next time. This trip I got a piece of wild-caught Atlantic salmon and a dozen jumbo shrimp. The mussels were tempting but have been so over-harvested they're far too small for the bother. The fish monger behind the counter seemed to know seafood well and was wonderfully direct about what was good that day, what was not, and what's likely due tomorrow. Just past the seafood are racks of cakes and imported cookies in what seemed to be almost endless variations. Among them were (at least) two dozen varieties of Loacker Quadratini (bite-sized, layered wafers) selling for about a third the price on Amazon. (Yes, they are amazing.) Beyond that, jammed into another corner, are pots and pans and baking sheets, pizza peels, kitchen knives, storage bins, and mountains of take-out containers. Ahead is a wide array of consumer-size salamis, prosciutto, soppressata, mortadella, and pancetta, many uncured and unprocessed. And gigantic loaves suited for commercial delis or once-a-hundred-year family reunions. Don't be surprised if standing next to folks from your local bodega buying the same foods you are, at the same price you're about to pay. Here. Definitely not there... There is one long aisle of frozen goods stacked with massive bags of prepared frozen chicken and fish and fries and dumplings of all sorts. Plus many in consumer-size (though still pretty large) bags. Across the narrow aisle, more floor to ceiling freezers are jammed with an array of restaurant-quality deserts in both feed-an-army size and just-for-me cups. My single-serve chocolate & coffee mouse, topped with crunchy bits of heaven, was generous and rich. And in its own reusable glass ramakin. At least a zillion other products from massive slabs of freshly butchered meat to individual vacuum-sealed steaks to rows of imported cheeses, stacks of crackers and breadsticks, even basics like fresh milk and eggs. There is too much food here for this tightly-packed space. It's well-organized but the variety is stunning and vast. No matter how many times I've gone, it's been near impossible to see everything in a single visit. Or to acknowledge more than a tiny portion of the stock. And yet all that isn't too much for foodies like me. This foodie is counting the days till the expansion is completed and there's even more room for even more foods. Ace Endico is just another grocery store about the same way Hank Aaron was just another ball player, like Julia Child was just another cook.... Ace is the real deal; a serious destination worth a whole lot of repeat trips.

    Salami and olives!

    Very interesting Italian grocery store with some hard to find and gourmet items. Ace Endico is a commercial restaurant supplier and operates a small retail grocery story. The fresh fish is excellent. We've purchased wild salmon and wild swordfish, both were fresh and excellent. Also the tenderloin is steakhouse quality. And the hard salamis are amazing. Prices: for gourmet items less than normal retail stores Staff: friendly

    Not open to the public. Lots of food items available in high quantity. The prices are good but only…read moreif you are able to store the amount you buy. It's very clean inside because it's a new building. Some of the employees are friendly and helpful. The lines are what always seem to be the problem. They are too long and move too slow. Most transactions need an override by a manager for whatever reason.

    It takes dedication to shop at Restaurant Depot. This is the place for chefs and restaurant owners…read moreand bodega stockers. And, surprisingly, ordinary folks who want incredible deals on the foods they love. I fall into that latter category and I can't believe I can actually shop in this massive wholesale warehouse. This is where many restaurants and local shops get the goods they make and sell to you. Everything from the raw foods to the pots they'll be cooked in, the containers they're packed in, and the cloths to clean up after. This space is HUGE. It's overloaded with foods and food stuff and tools-of-the-trade stacked from floor to ceiling as far as the eye can see. Wow and wow yet again. The warehouse looks official because it is. The massive parking lot is lined with big carts designed for case-size buys. No strollers, no cute little "shopper in training" mini-carts. A bit scary for the average shopper maybe, but don't be fooled. Stride right in, register as a day-shopper. And you are good to go. It's that easy. (If you own a business, any business at all, sign up once and you'll never have to stop at the desk again.) As you might expect, everything is sold by the case. BUT it's also sold by the piece, too. Yep, want a 10-pound case of scallops...? That's here. Prefer just a few...? It's a bit more per pound, but it's yours. Buy a 12ct case of Hellmann's mayo for less than $80. Or just one for $7.31. The secret here, I think, is to ignore the vastness of it. Or never be intimidated by the immense jars and boxes you'll see. Just look a bit further and you'll find many of the same products on the next shelf in more consumer friendly sizes. Almost every single item here can be bought by the case or the piece, in humongous restaurant size tubs or standard little jars. There's staff here, mostly working full out, endlessly stocking and packing. Fortunately, they're available to answer a question or point you to the right section if needed. By and large, whatever you might be looking to find is on a shelf here, somewhere.... Whether you buy one item for dinner or pick up a dozen cases for The Big Event, shopping has never been this big, this much fun, this vast a foodie's paradise....
